Dame Judi Dench has become the latest TikTok sensation, thanks to her grandson, Sam Williams, who recently set up an account on the video-sharing app.

At home amid the coronavirus lockdown in the UK, the 85-year-old Oscar winner, who doesn’t have her own account, seems to be thriving on the app. It happens thus: Williams rings up Dench and films her as she effortlessly beats him to punch lines for his jokes and has even tried a dance challenge.

In the videos, the cool grandma is blown up on the screen as she is away from Williams, who is also self-isolating due to the COVID-19 virus. Take a look at some of her videos here:

Dench, who is also an artist and author made her professional debut in Old Vic Company, a non-profit theatre company. The actor is best known for her role as ‘M’ in the James Bond movie series.
